Liner Notes:

Inspired from online new and posts lamenting about subsidies. Although I did tone down the lyric I had to record and post it before I changed my mind since I normally shy away from political songs. I'm sure the political tag will spur at least a couple of folks to listen to something else. That and post forty something with a couple weeks to go.

Lyrics:

Stop subsidizing buses and trains Its what those people ride
A billion dollars last year and we all paid

Chorus 1 We just want to drive alone in our fossil fuel powered cars Burning gasoline feeling free Its cheap and there’s plenty today Scientists are fooling us about climate change Cause its a real car and burning fuel is the American way So stop subsidizing giving them a free ride

Stop subsidizing electric cars Just a tax rebate for the rich anyway A billion dollars last year and we all paid

Repeat chorus

So maybe by now you’re thinking the subsidy for buses, trains and electric cars is kinda steep And a burden on the working middle class, if thats the case well then

Stop subsidizing fossil fuel Level the playing field for electric cars, buses, and trains 600 billion a year in subsidies most of it goes overseas

Chorus 2 We can’t afford to drive alone anymore in our fossil fuel powered cars Burning gasoline isn’t free Long term there’s a price to pay Scientists are not fooling us about climate change Cause its all transportation and America needs alternative ways to go from point A to point B So stop subsidizing
